Interorgan lipid transport is crucial for organism development and the maintenance of physiological function. Drosophila long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase (dAcsl), which catalyzes the conversion of fatty ...

New technique to image single lipids: Lipids are notoriously difficult to detect with light microscopy. Using a new chemical labeling strategy, the Dresden team has overcome this limitation, enabling ...

Researchers discover a new mechanism controlling the uptake of lipids from digested food. The maintenance of a balanced lipid homeostasis is critical for our health. While consumption of excessive ...
